Niu Chongtian came to the area around the Yamen Prison in the county seat and looked at it again and again, and he found that the guards here were very strict and strict. Niu Chongtian thought: With his superb martial arts, he can completely save his son from prison, but this will kill many innocent people, so he thinks that it is not advisable to take the method of forcibly robbing prison to save people. Besides, robbing a prison is a capital offense, and if something happens, it will affect the family. Then I can't rob the prison, so I can only consider using money to ransom people, but I don't even know anyone who can speak, so how can I send money?

It was already noon, Niu Chongtian's stomach was so hungry that he "gurgled", he walked into a restaurant and asked for a bowl of water and wine and two dishes to drink the stuffy wine. There were two old men at the next table chatting over a drink. An old man quietly asked another old man: "Have you heard? A few days ago, the county magistrate gave a gift in order to pat the boss's ass, but he never thought that his gift was snatched away by the bandit Ma Zhanshan. This made the county master angry, and he sent people everywhere to arrest people, and arrested a lot of so-called bandits to vent his anger. "You know, isn't that a clear desire to get oil and water from the people who were captured, and to get back the losses from those who were captured? "Yes! It's really a trick!" Niu Chongtian heard this, his heart brightened up a lot, and he felt that there was a way. He walked over and arched his hands and said, "Two old brothers, I came to save my son for this matter." I really want to send money to get people, but I can't find a way to send money. How about I ask the two old brothers to give me some advice?" After the two old men turned around and listened to him, one of them said, "Pity the hearts of the parents of the world! I'm sorry for the eldest nephew, and I can't do anything about it." The old man was embarrassed to be embarrassed if he couldn't help. Another old man took over and said, "I have an idea, you can give it a try." You get closer. He was afraid of being heard, so he whispered to Niu Chongtian, "There is a skinny 50-year-old frequent visitor here, and I can't remember what the name of the master of the yamen is." Every time he came here, he drank in the private room upstairs. ”

"Great, great! Thank you, brother, thank you. Niu Chongtian hurriedly shouted to the shopkeeper, "Little Er, come and add two good dishes to these two old men, and add some wine." I'll pay for the food and drinks on this table. The newly ordered wine and food soon came up, and Niu Chongtian toasted them. It was also a coincidence that the master came, and as soon as he walked in the door, he was seen by one of the old men. The old man quietly said to Niu Chongtian: "I really said that Cao Cao Cao is here, the eldest nephew, the master is here." Niu Chongtian saw the master with the hint of the old man, not to mention the joy in his heart, and toasted the two old men with a few glasses of wine. Another old man said to Niu Chongtian: "Eldest nephew, don't be too happy, I heard that that master is not a good thing, you should be more careful not to be deceived by him." The old man was reminding Niu Chongtian. "Thank you uncle for the reminder, I'll pay attention. In order to save my son, I had to give it a try, knowing that he was a liar. You brothers drink slowly, and I'll be over. After Niu Chongtian finished speaking, he left the wine table and went to the second floor. Niu Chongtian went up to the second floor and went straight to the room with the best location. He gently pushed open the door of his room and looked inside, and it was good. The master has already drunk it. "Master has been doing well lately!" Niu Chongtian greeted and walked in generously. The master's surname is Shi Minghou, this person is really a monkey spirit, and sometimes he does something that lacks morality, so some people call him a dead monkey. Shi Hou saw someone enter his room. He was startled at first, and then asked a little angrily, "Who are you?" he said, looking at the seeker and feeling that the visitor was extraordinary. He wanted to get angry, but now he has changed his mind, let's talk about it first!. "Businessmen, the people of the rivers and lakes call the living fairy king shrewd. I have admired the prestige of the Lord for a long time, and I want to do business with the Lord today, I wonder if the Lord is interested in it?" Niu Chongtian knew that he was too ghostly, so he also changed his name and surname to fool the dead monkey. "I haven't heard of you, you're looking for the wrong person, I'm not going to do anything. Shi Hou looked like he didn't answer. Niu Chongtian walked to the table and sat down, "My lord, you are too polite, are you doing a business without capital or a seller, do you want me to order it thoroughly?" "No need, how to do it, you can say it! I'll listen!" Shi Hou said and thought as he ate: It seems that the arrival of this person may bring me a chance to make a fortune.

Niu Chongtian listened to Shi Hou's words and thought: Okay, this guy is on the set. Niu Chongtian said: "There are two kinds of business for us: one is that I and the county master will be you as the middleman, and the other is that we will do it. I don't know what you want me to do?" "Of course I want you to choose the second one! Shi Hou said. "Yes! When a middleman makes little money for others, it is better to do it yourself. Then let's do it, but do you have the final say?" Niu Chongtian asked with some concern. "Don't worry, my supply is smaller, but the price is cheaper. The county lord's supply is abundant, but the price is expensive! It doesn't make much money, so it's more suitable for you to do it with me. Shi Hou both explained the situation and expressed his own opinions. "My lord, I understand the benefits of direct trading between us. I want to explain how many silver taels I want to pay for a deal with the county master?How many silver taels do I want to make a deal?"

"That's a human life! It is estimated that the county master will not do it without five hundred taels of county. Shi Hou said and stretched out five fingers. Shi Hou's answer made Niu Chongtian startled, and he thought: He really dares to ask for it, how can I give him so much money. Fortunately, I didn't plan to do this deal with the county master. Niu Chongtian already counted in his heart and said: "The seller deceives the buyer, there is no such business to do." It is necessary to pay attention to the practicality of buying and selling, the seller does not give the buyer space, and the last thing to hurt is the seller himself. "We're trading a lot less. Shi Hou continued. "How much do I have to make a deal between us?" asked Niu Chongtian. Niu Chongtian's words, Shi Hou understood, where are the people asking for space? Shi Hou said: "Two hundred lines?" "No, it depends on the object of the transaction, most of those buyers are poor people, where do they get so much silver? I don't think there are many people who can get two hundred." Shi Hou thought about it, it seems that I can't mess things up with my eyes in my eyes, so he spied on the other party, "Boss Wang, how much can you pay for a transaction between us?" "One hundred, they can only take these at most." Of course, if I meet a rich man, I will ask him for 200. If you are poor, you will have less. Be flexible!" Niu Chongtian deliberately cut it in half, and then said something lively. "A hundred, that's too little. There are so few that I don't even want to do. Shi Hou was taken aback when he heard Boss Wang's offer, and he had to express his attitude that he couldn't accept this price. "I made sense that they couldn't take it out, and that most of the buyers' families were long-term tenants. Their family is as poor as washing and selling, the house is a straw shed, and there is no ridge of land for sale. If we can get a hundred taels of silver, we will still share more, and I will share less. But I'll tell you first, I can't be less than twenty taels. How about I give 20 taels if the buyer gives less, and I get 20 taels if the buyer gives more? I think we'll just make up our minds!" Niu Chongtian said that he was still depressing the price!" "You can divide 20 taels less, which is too little." Shi Hou said loudly with a wide range of eyes. "My lord, you want me to do this business, I am frightened and afraid, and I missed the time to help. Twenty taels after deducting my own expenses, how much is left? Supposedly, I am even more dissatisfied. But that's the case, we can't ask for more. Besides, you have no capital to buy, as long as you use a little clever money, you will get it. As long as you keep supply, so will your silver. Shi Hou listened to Boss Wang's words, and felt that he was a little unlistened, but it made sense to think about it carefully. He took a sip of wine and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I understand, small profits but quick turnover." "Wang Jingming, Wang Jingming! You are indeed shrewd, and you want to manage a field with me that can guarantee the harvest during drought and flood! Yes, your idea is indeed good! Shi Hou thought secretly in his heart. Niu Chongtian felt that he was a little bit close to success, and he said to Shi Hou: "My lord, if we want to do business, should we plan and plan well!"

Shi Hou felt that this was the only way to go, so he nodded. Their planning was soon over, and then they broke up and went back to get ready to go. Niu Chongtian definitely didn't have enough money on hand, so he was going to rush home overnight to get money, and come here at this time the day after tomorrow to discuss the next move. Ma Zhanshan received a letter from the eyeliner placed in the county, and after Ma Zhanshan read the letter, he immediately called Ma Xiaopiao and Zhao San to set off for the county seat. They were led by eyeliner to the cook's house, where the prisoners were cooking. Ma Zhanshan gave the cook a lot of silver taels. "Help my brother, and when it's done, I'll give you some more silver. After the deed, if you are in danger, don't work there as a cook, if you want to come up to the mountain, we welcome you. What Ma Zhanshan said to the cook relieved the cook. The cook was scared, and some of them didn't dare to do it. And when he saw all this abundance of silver, he could not be afraid. He felt that he should do it, and with so much silver, he would have a good life in the future. So he agreed with a mouthful of words, saying: "The owner of the village is polite, and this matter will be wrapped up in me." But you've only come with three people, aren't you a little less?" said the eyeliner who brought them, "Dude, do you know what kind of people these three are? That's a tiger! Killing ten or eight jailers is like cutting watermelons in a watermelon field!" "Ah! I believe that I don't need to cut a dozen or so, and it is estimated that two doors are four or five, and besides, I have changed your outfit, and I may be able to fool the past and probably not need to kill." The cook pulled the stool forward and said, "That's how I planned it." The three of you disguised themselves as peasants and pulled a cart of vegetables to the prison kitchen, where you disguised themselves as prisoners to deliver food, and after passing through two guards, you could find the sixth cell. I have the keys for you, but I have a request that whoever has seen you better not let him live, which is vital to you and to me. When Ma Xiaopiao heard this, his heart 'chuckled', and he said casually, "How many people are going to be killed!" "As long as they find out the people they saw when they broke through the two guards, there are about four or five," the cook explained. "Don't worry, we're going to do a good job so we don't get you in trouble. You're very careful, thank you!" Ma Zhanshan patted the cook on the shoulder and said. The cook then said, "Take action, and come tomorrow at noon." Then I will prepare the keys for you, and the rest will be up to you. Ma Zhanshan saw that the matter was finished, and in order to express his gratitude to the cook, he said, "Okay, I invite you out for a drink?" "No, we can't appear in front of outsiders together, it's too unsafe!" "Okay! I was negligent in this, thanks to your reminder." Ma Zhanshan said approvingly. Zhao San has always been a person who gives advice to others, and today he met a cook in the prison who can also give good advice to others, he feels that this person is very successful, and he is ruthless enough, it seems that this operation will be successful. Before leaving, he gave the cook a thumbs up and said, "The young man has two more strokes." ”
